Everyone at a birthday party mocked a poorly dressed girl and her mother until the fuss caught the attention of a wealthy man.\n

Madison Lando brought her daughter Trudy up all by herself. The 33-year-old woman had been married to a miner named Joe Lando until he passed away in a mysterious mining accident along with some of his colleagues.\n

When he passed away, Madison was mad at him for a long time.\u00a0\u201cI war:ned you to stop doing it,\u201d\u00a0she would say whenever she thought about him.\n

\n
The acci:dent occured two years before, and their daughter, three at the time, had to grow up without a father.\n
It was not easy for them, especially after the little money her husband saved for emergencies used up.\n
That\u2019s how they lived, until one day, their lives changed suprisingly.\u00a0\n

Trudy had completed kindergarten, and a very wealthy classmate of hers invited her to attend the entire class for her birthday party.\n
\u201cAll dresses to be allowed must be bought at the Fontaine clothing store, and of course, there will be discounts.\u201d\n
\n
When Madison got home that day, she told her mother about the party. \u201cMom, everyone will be there. I have to go!\u201d the girl said, excited.\n
\u201cWe need to get to the store to pick my dress.\u201d\n
\u201cYes, yes, let\u2019s go,\u201d her mom said with feigned excitement.\n
She only had $100 tip which she had received at the restaurant where she worked during morning hours.\n
Madison was unhappy with what was happening, so she went down to a fabric store, picked out a similar fabric as the dress in Fontaine, and took it home to sew.\n
\u201cJust you wait baby, you\u2019ll have a dress soon,\u201d she said.\n
\n

It took her all night to sew the dress, but the end product was perfect. \u201cThank you mom, I love it,\u201d Trudy said, genuinely pleased with all the work her mother put in. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to show it off.\u201d\n
However, as she and her mother walked into the party, they paid the attention of many of the rich kids and their parents, who started to laugh at Trudy\u2019s attire.\n
\u201cYou should be more careful little girl,\u201d he said in a voice that sounded familiar to her \u2014 then she heard her mom speak behind her.\n
\u201cJoe?\u201d she said.\n
\u201cIs it really you?\u201d Madison asked as she moved closer.\n
\u201cMaddy?\u201d\n
The three people became similar from one another as they hugged tightly.\n
\n
\n
\n
This was her husband, whom she believed had di:ed five years before. \u201cTrudy, this is your father!\u201d\n
$\"\"$

\u201cFinally, I found you!\u201d he said.\n
\u201cWhat happened? Where have you been?\u201d his wife said in between hugs.\n
\u201cLet\u2019s head inside, I\u2019m here to offer gifts to the daughter of a business associate,\u201d he said.\n
\u201cWe can catch up then.\u201d\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t go back in there Joe, not after what happened,\u201d Madison said.\n
\u201cTell me,\u201d he said.\n
\n
After a range of incidents, Joe went with his family to the party hall, but this time, as the moms laughed at them again, Joe rose to their defense.\n
\u201cOur daughter may not have such expensive outfits as your children, but she has been taught how to be a good person. It is people with poor souls like you who can hardly be helped.\u201d\n
Nobody could think of an answer.\n

After mining accident, Joe had been wearing his friend\u2019s jacket.\n
When he woke up, he did not remember anything and had been identified by documents that belonged to his friend, who had no family or close friends, so no one came to visit him at the hospital.\n
His memory did not return immediately, and by the time it did, Madison and Trudy had already moved. \u201cWe had to,\u201d she said. \u201cWe lost the house to the bank.\u201d\n
Joe began to find them, and while he did, he opened his own mining business, worked hard, and became a millionaire.\n
He moved Trudy and her mother to his luxury condo, where he hoped to live with them happily and get to know his daughter more.\n
